“Beach”

On Monday morning, with everyone bathed, dressed, fed, burped, changed, strapped in their car seats, we headed off to the shopping mall to purchase a pair of shoes for Christopher. One day, we had four or five pairs of shoes that did not fit. The next day, his toes were nearing the top of the [...]

Easter Sunday

Happy Easter! We spent the day as any couple with kids would. We met Lisa, Duffy and their son, Alec, at the park for a picnic and Easter egg hunt. We arrived, Christopher ran to meet up with Alec who was already playing on the play structure, and we began hiding eggs. Actually, I was [...]

Website still under construction

After a couple of weeks of playing with a few software programs, I settled on a software called AlbumWeb that incorporates both pictures and videos. Unfortunately, the software is very limited; the picture pages and slideshow look very amateurish. I am very disappointed. I think I will look into another software that manages the pictures. [...]

The potty diaries – April 11, 2009

We haven’t been consistent with our potty training since bringing home baby. We put Christopher on the toilet every now and then, and ask him repeatedly if he needs to use the toilet. The answer to this question invariably is, “No!” Yet, this day, he came up to each of us and said, “poop.” With [...]

His first month

Just one month ago, Matteo was born. Two days later, we brought him home. Within the first week, he gained an one pound. By now, I suspect he weighs more than a 10 lb sack of potatoes. That’s it…he’s our little potato. When he is awake, which spans the short time it takes to change, [...]

Stay-at-home Dad T.V. show update

I heard from David, the executive producer of High Line Films. Since beginning filming, they have been busily selling the pilot episode. In fact, after filming my segment, David and his producer, Moshe, caught a plane to L.A. From what I heard, the response to the program and idea has been very positive. Who knows…you [...]

May I have some spicy water, please?

Our morning consisted of getting everyone showered or bathed, dressed and out the door no later than 8:30 a.m. My goal was to stop by Peet’s Coffee for my cappuccino, a scone to share with Christopher, and then head out to SadieDey’s Cafe (formerly Tumble and Tea). I figured we could play until 11:30, head [...]

Still catching up…

on everything! In the last couple of days I bombarded you with quite a few postings. Well, I find myself with a bit of time during the very late evening as I wait for Matteo to demand is final feeding before bedtime. This feeding usually occurs sometime between 10:30 pm and midnight. He started feeding [...]
